Jimi Hendrix unreleased tracks, dry-cleaning bills and payslips to go on sale

Unreleased Jimi Hendrix songs are among an array of memorabilia belonging to the late musician that is set to go up for auction next month.

For the first time, fans will have the opportunity to bid for various personal items that reveal more about Hendrix’s musical endeavors and off-stage life, according to entertainment memorabilia vendor Propstore, which is hosting the auction. Among the items are 50 rare tapes including master recordings with unheard tracks, as well as personal paperwork such as payslips for him and his bandmates, a handwritten form in which Hendrix requests his birth certificate, dry-cleaning bills and tour itineraries. “When we first had the opportunity to explore this archive, we were immediately captivated by the depth and significance of the material,” Mark Hochnam, Propstore’s Music and Poster consultant, said in a press release.
